Ingredients

Scale

Toffee Base

  • 2 cups unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Cinnamon Sugar Coating

  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Chocolate Coating

  • 4 cups white melting wafers or candy chocolate

Instructions

  1. Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside to cool the toffee on.
  2. Melt Ingredients: In a 3-quart heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the butter, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until the butter and sugar dissolve and form a smooth mixture.
  3. Cook Toffee: Attach a candy thermometer to the pan and continue cooking over medium-low heat, stirring constantly. Allow the mixture to boil gently until it reaches 300°F (hard crack stage), which takes about 10-15 minutes. Be patient and keep the heat controlled to avoid burning.
  4. Pour Toffee: Once the temperature is reached, immediately turn off the heat and pour the hot toffee mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Cut Toffee: Let the toffee cool for 5 minutes to slightly set; then use a large kitchen knife to score it into squares. Press down multiple times along the score lines to prevent the toffee from sticking back together. Allow it to cool completely, or place the tray in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes to speed this up.
  6. Break Toffee: After fully cooled, break the toffee into individual pieces along the scored lines.
  7. Melt Chocolate and Prepare Cinnamon Sugar: Melt the white chocolate wafers according to package instructions. In a separate dish, mix together the ½ cup sugar and 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon to create the churro topping.
  8. Coat Toffee: Dip each toffee piece into the melted white chocolate, shaking off excess chocolate. Then immediately roll or coat the piece thoroughly in the cinnamon sugar mixture, sprinkling additional cinnamon sugar over the top for extra flavor and coverage. Place coated pieces on a clean parchment-lined surface.
  9. Set Chocolate: Allow the chocolate to set at room temperature for about 40 minutes or until firm. Once set, the churro toffee is ready to enjoy or package for gifting.

Notes

  • Use a candy thermometer for accurate temperature to achieve perfect hard crack toffee.
  • Be patient while cooking the toffee over low heat to avoid burning and ensure a smooth texture.
  • Cut the toffee while warm for easier scoring, but allow it to fully cool before coating.
  • Melt the white chocolate gently to prevent it from seizing.
  • Store the finished churro toffee in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
